Sudan War: Sudanese criticize the forces of independence and change and consider them unrepresentative

Its role was crucial during the Sudanese protests that erupted in late 2018 and continued until the ouster of former Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir’s regime.

After the military council assumed power in Sudan, it continued to protest against the council, which refused to hand over power, and was responsible for many violations against demonstrators.

In July 2019, Qaht entered into negotiations with the Military Council, which signed a power-sharing agreement between civilians and the military, known as the Constitutional Document.

The document stipulated the establishment of a “Sudanese Sovereignty Council” headed by military commander Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and appointed Abdullah Hamdok as prime minister.

On the twenty-fifth of October 2021, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan declared a state of emergency, toppling Hamdok’s government and dissolving his government and the Sudanese Sovereignty Council.

She opposed the brutality of the “conspiracy” carried out by Al-Burhan, called for popular demonstrations against him, and negotiated with Sudanese military leaders until what became known as the “Framework Agreement”, but clashes broke out in Khartoum in mid-April this year between the Sudanese army and support forces.

In the last statement “Shameless” posted on his Facebook account last May, he confirmed what he described as his “firm and not subject to any bids” to end the war.

It also called for “support for joint negotiations between the two sides to the conflict in accordance with the Saudi-US initiative, to reach a ceasefire and to resolve the disputed issues through a comprehensive political solution.”

And it called for “a comprehensive political settlement, a democratic civil transition and security and military reform that would lead to a professional national army that would distance itself from politics.”

He blamed what he described as “plans of the destroyed regime and its disbanded party” to shift the war to other regions and turn it into a civil war, taking advantage of the absence of state institutions, as they said.

In an interview with the Al-Jazeera Mubashar satellite channel, Yasser Arman, a spokesman for the Forces for Freedom and Change, said: “The remnants of the former regime are strong and have a strong presence and influence in all centers of the Sudanese state.”

Regarding his response to accusations leveled against the Forces for Freedom and Transition for supporting the commander of the Rapid Support Forces (Hameti), Arman said he supports the Hamidati Framework Agreement and is interested in a unified Sudanese army.

Some social media pioneers have communicated by showing their opposition to the directions of the forces of independence and change, and their support for the Sudanese army’s stance, by rallying around the army to represent the country’s unity.

Some tweeters circulated a video clip explaining why they objected to Armaan’s recent statements, and considered his words to be in support of the Rapid Support Forces, which carried out massacres in Sudan.

Youssef Al-Radisi posted the reason for his participation on TikTok with the tag #Shameless_does not represent me, where he said he was “trading the Sudan issue and threatening war” and considered him worse than the army. According to his description they are “agents of embassies”.

Khaled al-Tayeb released a video clip in which he called on Sudanese forces to form a “martial government” and said he was withdrawing his mandate out of what he described as “a disgrace” and that it did not represent him.

On the other hand, some tweeters interacted in support of the “shameless” stance, which they said represented the will of the people who offered it.
